WASHINGTON, D.C.—According to sources at an anti-Trump rally in D.C., a liberal protester repeatedly screamed the phrase, “LOVE TRUMPS HATE!” while beating a Republican man unlucky enough to walk by the demonstration to death with a shovel.

The man was waving a sign reading “DOWN WITH HATE” and shouting the slogan when he spotted the passerby in a Make America Great Again hat, causing him to borrow a shovel from a nearby construction crew and begin chasing the Republican man down the street.

“TOLERATE THIS!” he screamed as he brought the heavy gardening implement down on the man’s head, rendering him unconscious. His beatdown continued for several minutes, until other leftist protesters intervened in order to make sure they got a turn wailing on the helpless victim.

At publishing time, the progressive had begun screaming, “WHEN THEY GO LOW, WE GO HIGH!” while leaping out a second-story window to elbow-drop another hapless conservative bystander.
